AI Contract Overview

Show more

The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) has issued a sole-source, Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract to Bolt Beranek and Newman (BBN) for undersea acoustic data collection, processing, and analysis during a scheduled Government Fleet Exercise. BBN was selected as the only capable source due to their specialized hardware, which is already engineered to interface with the government's undersea fiber optic cable architecture, and their concurrent activities at the exercise location. This arrangement avoids logistical interference, duplicate mobilization costs, and schedule risks that would arise from introducing a second contractor. The scope of work includes the delivery of technical data packages, quick-look briefings, and raw data, with specific deliverables governed by a Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) and submitted in .pdf format. The contract is structured as a five-year purchase order with a CLIN structure for services and data deliverables. Amendment 0001 modified the agreement by changing SOW task 4.3.7 from a base requirement to an option and incorporating FAR 52.217-9 to allow for the extension of the contract term. Compliance requirements are stringent, including CMMC Level 1 certification, NIST SP 800-171 standards for safeguarding covered defense information, and strict adherence to Distribution Statement D and export control warnings under the Arms Export Control Act. Performance is centered in Newport, Rhode Island, with invoicing handled through Wide Area Workflow (WAWF).

Full Description

Amendment 0001: The purpose of this amendment is to amend SOW task 4.3.7 from a base requirement to an
Option and incorporate option clause 52.217-9 Option to Extend the Term of the Contract.


NUWCDIVNPT requires procurement of Firm Fixed Priced (FFP), Bolt Beranek and Newman (BBN) Sole Source Services for undersea acoustic data collection, processing, and analysis during a scheduled Government Fleet Exercise in accordance with the Attached combined Solicitation/synopsis. Their specific hardware is already engineered to interface seamlessly with the Government’s undersea fiber optic cable architecture. In addition, BBN is executing concurrent activities on behalf of the Government at the designated exercise location. Introducing a second, separate contractor to perform this specific acoustic measurement task would cause logistical interference, require duplicate mobilization/demobilization costs, and create unacceptable schedule risks during a complex, multi-asset naval exercise. The required rapid deployment timeline precludes any other vendor from meeting the requirement without causing a schedule failure and exorbitant duplicative costs. As such, BBN is the only source capable of meeting the Government's requirements.



This notice is not a request for competitive quotes. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement which will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future.
